there are several appropriate sized tires out there, but several are stated to be designed for SUV's and such. I wonder if the tire carcass and rubber compounding of a tire designed for a vehicle that weighs 2-3 times what my SPF does would really be the right tire for me. I have decided to stay away from any such tires.

When i see that nice tires are made in such odd-balls sizes, i wonder why someone doesn't see the economics of building a spec tire just for us. I guess they don't see it as a viable market.

But i am leary of an "SUV" or light truck tire.
